Hw #33 Outline for big paper

Thesis: Being cool has become the natural way in our current society to mask and cover up our insecurities.




Main idea
Cool is an endless cycle of change that is kept up with by only a small part of our population. The cool ones can see whats in style before it is in style to the masses. They predict the trends and start the fads. Does this mean that they are the most insecure of us? Certainly not. But they definitely use there style to cover up some of there weak spots and personality flaws. Take tiger woods for example, his image of face was busted when we found out about his affairs with all these women. Suddenly his character came into question. Nike and Gatorade no longer wanted to sponsor him and he began to be doubted. He used to have the image of the focused golfer that was just too good for his competition. His character was firm. But now that he has been shifted out of his comfort zone, his true colors seem to come out.


Examples:
Tiger Woods
Hip Hop stars
People craving attention
